Dairy Crowd Gate

Getting cows into the milking parlor quickly is an important factor when you consider the update of an existing installation or construction of a new facility. Efficient cow flow management will increase profits through reduced stress on the cows and improved time management. After cows enter the holding pen, the operator lowers a mesh gate and slowly moves it forward, crowding the cows through the entrance to milking parlor.

The mesh panel of Goossen Moo-ver is equipped with a switchable electric fencing unit. The audible alarm quickly trains cows to move forward eventually eliminating the need to turn on the electric fencing unit. As the mesh panel is moved forward, the next group of cows can be brought into the holding area.
